Life has thrown many curveballs at Martha. As mid-life approaches, perhaps her newfound understanding of her childhood trauma will give her permission to believe she deserves better than her self-serving ex-husband and the put downs from her adult daughters.She encounters a group of staggering, slurring, homeless men. Amongst them is Stephen, her son’s treasured best friend, whose life had been turned upside down after a night of drink, drugs and a girl of his dreams; he had woken believing he’d had the time of his life, but the rumour machine had him marked a rapist.She sees a young man who is a shell of his former athletic self, but she knows that the old Stephen is still there, and one person believing in and being there for him could be enough to turn him around.Self-doubting, struggling, searching... emotional challenges Martha and Stephen are all too familiar with.
